Detailed explanation-2: -The transceiver is an important part of a fiber optics network and is used to convert electrical signals to optical (light) signals and optical signals to electrical signals. It can be plugged into or embedded into another device within a data network that can send and receive a signal.

Detailed explanation-3: -RF Transceiver ICs are semiconductor devices that consist of a transmitter and a receiver in a single package. Transceivers are designed to function proficiently within an RF family or standard such as AISG, Bluetooth, ISM, VHF, Wi-Fi, cellular, RADAR, 802.15.

Detailed explanation-4: -The main component in any WSN network is WSN Transceiver. The Transceiver is the name given to the device which houses both RF transmitter and RF receiver. WSN transceiver is the transceiver which is compliant to any of the WSN wireless standards.

Detailed explanation-5: -Our mobile phones, walkie-talkie etc. are examples of transceivers. A modem is similar to a transceiver, in that it sends and receives a signal, but a modem uses modulation and demodulation. It modulates a signal being transmitted and demodulates a signal which is received.
